Why Pre Purchase Building Inspections Are so Vital

If you are buying a home without conducting a prior inspection prior to purchase and you end up owning some pretty expensive problems that could be discovered, but you could severely limit your options for claiming damages in the event that the house resulted in significant problems.

A pre purchase inspection report prepared by an certified Kaiwharawhara building inspector will show up any defects the property has, as well as any future problems , and indicate areas to add value. This assures home buyers don’t face any nasty surprises and gives you the chance to negotiate lower cost.

We examine the entire structure and identify any significant defects, future or urgent maintenance issues , and any problems caused by gradual deterioration. We check for structural issues or any indication that the house is not in good repair or has issues due to delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting because of peeling paint and areas where there is moisture or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
